DetailsDescription: The wpscan package contains over 90 MB of unnecessary spec files which are only used for development purposes and are never required to run the software. These spec files represent roughly 80% of the package's current size.
It is worth mentioning that the gem's original packaging specification does not include these files; only the app/ and lib/ directories are included along with the readme and license. https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan/blob/1d18514ab598bc12e87597f7edb5870f17e46942/wpscan.gemspec#L18 Additional info: * package version(s): 1:3.8.17-1 Steps to reproduce: 1. Install package 2. Observe presence and size of spec directory relative to the package. $ du -sh /opt/wpscan 121M /opt/wpscan $ du -sh /opt/wpscan/spec 96M /opt/wpscan/spec Suggested fix: Do not package the spec/ directory. |
